Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 452 Changes in the Northland
  Qin Wuyang interrupted anxiously and asked:

"Giant, now that the assassin has not been caught, it doesn't matter which force he belongs to. The key point is what should we do with General Li Mu?"

"Li Mu's place... let's see what Guo Kai will do next." Thinking of this problem, the Six-fingered Black Man was also a little confused. In Handan City, there was really nothing that could be done against Guo Kai. Forced force was completely unfeasible. Let's use inducement, but the money is not enough. The key is that this product does not allow anyone to raise money for Li Mu's affairs, and the full amount must be paid immediately in one lump sum.

Originally, the Six-Fingered Black Man had made preparations to prevent Guo Kai from directing and acting out an assassination scene to frame Li Mu, but just like Guo Kai, the plan had not yet been implemented. After all, Guo Kai and Li Mu had not really faced off until today. , the two sides' positions were completely opposite. Unexpectedly, an assassin suddenly appeared, and the timing was so accurate... One step was wrong, every step was wrong.

Now he can only act according to the situation. If something cannot be done, he will take Li Mu and escape.

After Qin Wuyang and Jing Ke heard the words of the Six-fingered Black Man, they also understood that Li Mu's situation was now at the end of the road, and the situation in the North was likely to change.

boom!
  Qin Wuyang turned around and punched the pillar of the roof beam, making a muffled sound. He murmured in hatred, "Damn Guo Kai, I really want to kill that bastard!"

Jing Ke reached out and patted his shoulder and advised, "Okay, Brother Wuyang, there is nothing we can do about this kind of thing. After all, we people in the world are not suitable to interfere in the affairs of a country."

"But……"

Before Qin Wuyang could say anything, a Mohist disciple suddenly rushed in and shouted, "Juzi, Commander, urgent message from the North!"

The three six-fingered black men looked at the person at the same time, and saw him hurriedly taking out a letter and saying at the same time, "Big brother, this is the information sent urgently from the north using the Suzaku mechanism."

Reaching out for the letter, the Six-Fingered Black Man quickly opened it, lowered his head and read it quickly, then murmured to himself in a somewhat absent-minded voice:
  "Is this Li Mu's way of saving himself? He actually..."

"Big man, what's wrong? What happened?"

Seeing this, Jing Ke and the other two hurriedly asked. The Six-fingered Black Man didn't hide anything. He stretched out his hand and handed the letter over, "You guys take a look."

The two of them quickly took it and read the contents of the letter together. A look of surprise appeared on their faces at first, and then they seemed to have thought of what the Six-fingered Black Man had just said, and they looked at each other in unison, revealing at the same time An expression of disbelief.

Jing Ke tentatively asked the Six-fingered Black Man, "Juzi, do you mean that General Li Mu did this?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. After all, the timing is too coincidental."

"This... this shouldn't be done. How could he..." Qin Wuyang seemed a little unable to accept it. He danced and gestured for a long time, but was speechless.

The Six-Fingered Black Man calmed down now and asked in a calm voice, "Why is it impossible?"

"he……"

"Li Mu is the Northland Military God and a general after all. As a general, it is necessary to make appropriate choices when faced with difficulties."

"If it was really him who did this, it was just a choice he made. After all... there are two evils, and it is the lesser of two evils. His move was correct."

"..." Qin Wuyang is still a little confused, but it is not as difficult to accept as before. Jing Ke is much stronger than him, so he understands this. After all, his master is also a general of the country.

"Anyway, will General Li Mu's predicament be relieved for the time being?" Jing Ke patted Qin Wuyang again to comfort him, and then asked the six-fingered black man. "Yes, in this way, at least General Li Mu can avoid the immediate crisis for the time being." The six-fingered black man nodded slightly, "But it can only last for a while. As long as Guo Kai is still targeting him and King Zhao is still suspicious of him, It won’t be over.”

"Hey! Let's take it one step at a time. Get over the current situation first, and then talk about other things." The dashing Jing Ke waved his hand and said he was enjoying himself in the moment, then he picked up his wine gourd, pulled out the stopper and started tossing—— Li Mu's matter can come to an end for the time being, and he can indulge a little.

The six-fingered black man couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this. In his opinion, Jing Ke's biggest problem was his addiction to alcohol. Fortunately, this drunkard still knew it. Whenever he had an important mission, he could restrain himself to a certain extent - he would not drink at all. It's impossible. His martial arts also needs some wine to fuel it to its maximum power.

"Wuyang, go down and make arrangements. All disciples are preparing to evacuate Handan. Well... let's go to Beidi first."

"Yes, Juzi." After Qin Wuyang accepted the order, he took Jing Ke out with him.

The Six-fingered Black Man also left the Mo family stronghold afterwards.

………………

At noon, Gu Xun and Yan Lingji had just returned to Fangshi Inn.

After eating at noon every day, the two of them would come back to take a short break, mainly because Gu Xun needed to rest. His schedule was three meals and two nights of sleep unless there were special circumstances.

"Speaking of which, the Gold and Silver Gang probably won't cause trouble for the time being. This is a big loss." Gu Xun sat in the room, poured himself a cup of tea, and planned to drink some tea before going to bed.

Yan Lingji slumped down on the bed as soon as she entered the door, motionless like a useless person, and replied weakly in her voice even though she was not tired, "Then just go and rob them, it won't take any trouble."

"It's not worth it. I killed all the people in the past without any trouble, but it's very troublesome to find money. Besides, they are just lackeys of Guo Kai, tools to make money. How much money can they have in their hands? If they have enough cash, they may not have enough money. Concentration is not enough, so just wait for the big money to arrive."

"Bang!" Yan Lingji closed her eyes, lay on her back on the bed, curled her lips, and made no comment.
  To be honest, as one of the people closest to Gu Xun, she was confused as to why this guy was defrauding him of so much money every day. Also, where did the money go?
  But if Gu Xun didn't say anything, she would definitely not ask too much. It was none of her business anyway, so just let this guy do whatever he wanted.

"Here comes someone." Seeing her like this, Gu Xun just smiled and took a sip of tea. As soon as the cup left his mouth, he suddenly looked towards the door, "Six-fingered Black Man."

When Yan Lingji heard this, she finally gained some energy, climbed up with difficulty, sat next to Gu Xun, and curiously guessed, "Is he here about the copper box?"

"Obviously, there is no other possibility." Gu Xun raised his eyebrows and responded in the affirmative.

Then, there was a knock on the door——

Tuk~tuk~tuk~
  Accompanied by the knock on the door was the low voice of the Six-fingered Black Man, "Mr. Gu, is it convenient to see guests?"

"Please come in, giant." Gu Xun immediately greeted him with a smile.

Then the Six-fingered Black Man pushed open the door and entered. After saying hello to Gu Xunyan Lingji, he sat down opposite Gu Xun.
